Lidia Alvarez Veas, BACP

Lidia Alvarez Veas works with people who feel emotionally overwhelmed or stuck. She supports those having stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, trauma and problems adjusting to life changes. She offers sessions in English and Spanish and presents a calm, respectful presence to help people talk things through.

She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people can move at their own pace. Conversations are intended to help clients make sense of what is happening now and how past experiences may be influencing present choices. She aims to help people notice patterns that cause pain and to find new ways of coping.

Lidia uses a flexible mix of tools drawn from different psychotherapy approaches so sessions are tailored to each person. That practical variety means sessions can focus on understanding feelings, changing responses, or building new skills depending on what someone needs. She emphasises coping strategies that can be used day to day.

Her work pays attention to trauma and its effects, and she says her practice is trauma-informed and inclusive. She seeks to honour each person’s background and experiences while keeping safety as a priority during work together.

Born in Spain, Lidia trained in Communication Sciences before moving into counselling. She holds BACP accreditation, and she brings three years of professional experience to her practice. To begin, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the listed process.

How different approaches shape online work

Psychodynamic-informed work focuses on how past experiences influence current feelings and relationships. Sessions often involve talking through memories and patterns to gain insight and reduce repeating old dynamics.

Person-centred ways of working put the person’s experience at the centre. The therapist listens without judgement and helps people find their own pace and answers, which can be useful for building self-esteem and clarity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lidia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on their needs and goals. This means sessions can shift from reflective exploration to practical exercises when that fits the client best.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy week, reduces travel time and makes it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling to suit work and family life. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions so therapy sits alongside day-to-day responsibilities rather than replacing them.
